What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incorporation of orally administered 13C3 cholesterol into plasma cholesterol
Time Frame: 72 hours
13C3 cholesterol, which is labeled with a stable isotope, will be administered orally. Blood samples will be taken every 4-6 hours for 72 hours for the measurement of stable isotopic enrichment in cholesterol using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The study has a dual purpose: to determine the optimum oral dose of isotope, and to determine the time of peak enrichment in plasma cholesterol.
